Debt Free - Sort of :)

The money my dad lent me a few weeks ago to pay off my credit cards has today finally cleared in my bank so im going to pay off both my credit cards in the next 5 mins,

£900 Barclaycard
£300 Capital One
£800 Overdraft has also been cleared.

Seems alot of money to pay and dont really want to.. Lol But I Know I have to. Glad it can be out of the way now though :j :j :j

    And cancel the overdraft - it's very easy to slip back into again otherwise!

    But what about your dad? Do you have a plan for paying HIM back? Cos you still owe the money, just to someone less hassling!!

    Yeah I have set up a standing order of £120 per month until its paid off, I will have the option of paying more too if I want to get it paid off quicker. :p
